Vaxxed Overrepresented in Indiana COVID Cases & UK Deaths


For the first time, the vaccinated account for over half of the past week's COVID cases in Indiana. They made up 55% of cases, while 54% of Hoosiers are vaccinated. This is based on records I compile using data from Indiana's coronavirus website and the Regenstrief website that shows hospitalizations here. Click image to enlarge.

Numbers at 12/30/21 are likely off due to delays in reporting over Christmas.


COVID is spreading like a brush fire through the highly vaccinated office where I work, where there's been more coughing and sneezing in the past week than I've heard in two years. Coworkers are grabbing up tests, even as some of them doubt negative results. Why they bother to take a test if they're already so sure of the outcome that they doubt the result, I don't know. A few unvaccinated coworkers and I haven't been among the sick so far.

The table shows a small proportion of breakthrough hospitalizations and deaths among the vaccinated, but keep in mind Indiana considers you vaccinated if you've had two shots of Pfizer or Moderna or one of J&J no matter how long ago they were. It doesn't matter whether you're boosted or how long ago you had your shots. Most of the shots were given early in 2021 and only 24% of Hoosiers are boosted. Despite efficacy against hospitalization and death having worn off, the rates have been fairly steady since October.

Indiana isn't alone: the UK is showing negative efficacy (i.e., more harm than good) from the vaccines not only in cases, but deaths. Unlike Indiana, the UK specifies cases and deaths among the unjabbed, double-jabbed and boosted, and the double-jabbed are doing worse than the refusers. Just something to think about before getting boosted. 

For anyone paying attention, it's game over. As Dr. Michael Eades puts it in the latest issue of The Arrow,

Now, the administrations 'new' narrative sounds a whole lot like the Great Barrington Declaration. Let's care for the vulnerable. Don't test if you don't have symptoms. If you do test positive and develop symptoms, don't PCR test again after the symptoms are gone as the PCR can stay positive for up to 12 weeks. Just wait for a couple of days after symptoms have cleared and go back to work.

Everything but one has changed. The powers that be realize they can't restrain an infectious, aerosol-spread virus with lockdowns, masks, social distancing and the rest of the song and dance they've been going through. They can't even stop it with the current vaccines. In fact, more people get it per capita who have been vaccinated than who are unvaxxed.

Our leaders (some of them, anyway) are finally realizing what the data showed months or years ago and acting accordingly. What the wise man does in the beginning, the fool does in the end.

This Just In: Yogurt Doesn't Improve Health

A recent study from Spain finds "In comparison with people that did not eat yogurt, those who ate this dairy product regularly did not display any significant improvement in their score on the physical component of quality of life, and although there was a slight improvement mentally, this was not statistically significant," states López-García. Most yogurt is pretty much pudding with a little bacteria . Pudding is a sugar bomb. Hard to believe the stuff doesn't improve health outcomes, isn't it? But as usual, researchers are calling for...more research. "For future research more specific instruments must be used which may increase the probability of finding a potential benefit of this food."

Decongestant Ineffective; Vibration Plate Works

A common ingredient in many cold medicines has been shown so ineffective that the FDA recently proposed taking it off the market. The ingredient, phenylephrine, "failed to outperform placebo pills in patients with cold and allergy congestion," say researchers from the University of Florida. "The same researchers also challenged the drug's effectiveness in 2007, but the FDA allowed the products to remain on the market pending additional research," according to CNBC .  Mostly placebos.

I helped keep Sudafed in business when the active ingredient was pseudoephedrine, but I noticed the PE (phenylephrine) variety didn't work at all. The only other decongestants I've found helpful are guaifenesin (Mucinex) and spicy food. Mucinex is expensive because it works! (The cheaper store brands work just as well, though.) Su

Paleo Diet: Eating Differently from Everyone Else is Fine!

I've been seeing more and more articles by women (it's always women) whose heads have exploded trying to figure out life without yogurt and cupcakes. Oh, the shenanigans they get up to: bathroom problems from stuffing themselves with vegetables, paleo baked goods that don't taste the same as ones from the bakery, and especially the irresistible urge to eat "normally." The technical problems aren't hard to sort out: substitutes like baked goods will taste different because they are different, but an adjustment period of a few months will make those foods taste normal. And whatever you eat, don't stuff yourself. First, though, read a book by Loren Cordain or Mark Sisson to learn about the paleo diet before diving in. The articles I keep reading, though, have more to do with attitude: the urge to be exactly like everybody else or the urge to be helpless. If you're in the second category, I can't, by definition, help you. If you'd rather be Lu

Palpitations Gone with Iron

Thanks to my internet friend Larcana, who alerted me to the connection between iron deficiency and palpitations, I doubled down on my iron supplements and, for good measure, washed them down with Emergen-C. It's a cold medicine with a mega-dose of vitamin C, plus B vitamins and minerals. I don't think vitamin C does anything for a cold (a friend bought the stuff and left it at my house the last time she visited), but vitamin C does help iron absorption. After doubling up on iron in the last three days, I feel back to normal. (I'd already been taking quite a bit of magnesium and potassium, so I probably had sufficient levels of those.) How did I get so low on iron? Maybe it was too many Quest bars instead of red meat when I had odd cravings during my dental infection recently. Maybe because it's too hard to find liver at the grocery store and I haven't eaten much of it lately. Maybe the antibiotics damaged my intestines . And apparently, I'm a heavy bleeder .
